Hi Larry,
I've gotten these from Home Depot in the past, but they only have the self
tapping type. They're called "Phillips Round Washer".
>From an auto upholstery shop, try asking for "Phillips Oval Head Trim
Screws".
Au-ve-co also has them in their line of products. "Phillips Oval Head
'Sems' Countersunk washer Tapping Screws" in Chrome, try their #3537 for #6
X 5/8" or 2771 for #8 X 5/8". These are not the self tapping, but cut the
threads in a hole already drilled. Try an Auto upholstery shop who handles
Au-ve-co products. They can get them
There are others, but this already might be more than you want!!
Later, Paul A
